1894 Map of Plymouth

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

Plymouth and the surrounding coastline of Cape Cod Bay are depicted here as they appeared during the late 19th-century transition of the maritime economy. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by coastal industry and early rail expansion, with the Old Colony Railroad Plymouth Division terminating near the harbor and the Old Colony Railroad Cape Cod Branch cutting across the southern portion of the quadrangle. Inland, the terrain is defined by a high density of water bodies like Billington Sea and Little South Pond, which provided resources for local settlements like Chiltonville and East Carver.
